The classic novel spanning every decade of the 20th century, available as a Penguin Essential for the first timeEvery life is both ordinary and extraordinary, but Logan Mountstuart’s – lived from the beginning to the end of the twentieth century – contains more than its fair share of both. As a writer who finds inspiration with Hemingway in Paris and Virginia Woolf in London, as a spy recruited by Ian Fleming and betrayed in the war and as an art-dealer in ’60s New York, Logan mixes with the movers and shakers of his times. Here, then, is the story of a life lived to the full – and a journey deep into a very human heart.
